Josh Green's Reviews & Comments
Sotto Sotto 11/10/2009
The general American populace probably doesn’t equate Atlanta with noteworthy Italian dining. Several new additions to the intown dining scene, and this stalwart in Inman Park, make the case that the city’s palette, even with Italian fare, is broad, adventurous and pretty knowledgeable. Several foodies I know consider Sotto Sotto the pinnacle of Atlanta’s upscale dining scene, be it Italian or otherwise. While I’m not ready to dethrone Craft or anything Kevin Rathbun does, my hat’s off to this model of understated grace and authenticity. It’s by U restaurants, proprietors of the next-door institution that is Fritti and Midtown’s new LUPE Taqueria. For starters, we enjoy the Impepata di Cozze ($11), a heaping bowl of steamed mussels covered in lemon, olive oil and Calabrese peppers. I’m always game for the Tortelli di Michelangelo ($16), ravioli stuffed with veal, chicken and pork in butter/sage sauce. It’s a skimpy but delicious portion. There’s a thoughtful selection of some 200 wine offerings, ranging per bottle from about $30, and the service is poetic. Play your cards right, and you can get in, get satisfied and get out for $100. For this level of experience, that ain’t bad.
Juicy Green 10/29/2009
There’s nothing like trashy eighties hair-band rock to get me in the mood for frozen yogurt. Something about RATT points me to cold, overpriced mango in a dish. Not really. I was parked the other day at the stoplight of Virginia and Highland, reaching as quickly as possible to switch the station away from “Seventeen,” when this sleek little yogurt shop caught my eye – Juicy Green. I found parking and entered a sort of mini-IKEA, all minimalist with a dash of Kubrick. I had a sore throat and frozen tomato soup would have brought me in. There’s not much but supremely healthy yogurt, according to them, and a dozen or so flavors of gelato. Let’s be honest, the shit is divine. The flavors run the fancy fruit gamut, offered in plain or green tea styles. Couldn’t bring myself to plop $6 on the large bowl, so I went medium for a buck less. Nuts were a respectable 95 cents. They served me what you’d get at Hardees, if that swirl cone had aced art school on a trust fund. I walked away happy but puzzled. You’d think if they were so health-conscious and green they wouldn’t dish so much Styrofoam.
